Cell Surface Proteome

The cell surface proteome controls numerous cellular functions including cell migration and adhesion, intercellular communication and nutrient uptake. Cell surface proteins are controlled by acute changes in protein abundance at the plasma membrane through regulation of endocytosis and recycling (endomembrane traffic). Many cellular signals regulate endomembrane traffic, including metabolic signaling; however, the extent to which the cell surface proteome is controlled by acute regulation of endomembrane traffic under various conditions remains incompletely understood. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key metabolic sensor that is activated upon reduced cellular energy availability. AMPK activation alters the endomembrane traffic of a few specific proteins, as part of an adaptive response to increase energy intake and reduce energy expenditure. How increased AMPK activity during energy stress may globally regulate the cell surface proteome is not well understood. To study how AMPK may regulate the cell surface proteome, we used cell-impermeable biotinylation to selectively purify cell surface proteins under various conditions. Using ESI-MS/MS, we found that acute (90 min) treatment with the AMPK activator A-769662 elicits broad control of the cell surface abundance of diverse proteins. In particular, A-769662 treatment depleted from the cell surface proteins with functions in cell migration and adhesion. To complement our mass spectrometry results, we used other methods to show that A-769662 treatment results in impaired cell migration. Further, A-769662 treatment reduced the cell surface abundance of β1-integrin, a key cell migration protein, and AMPK gene silencing prevented this effect. While the control of the cell surface abundance of various proteins by A-769662 treatment was broad, it was also selective, as this treatment did not change the cell surface abundance of the transferrin receptor. Hence, the cell surface proteome is subject to acute regulation by treatment with A-769662, at least some of which is mediated by the metabolic sensor AMPK.

The cell-surface proteome controls numerous cellular functions and is dynamically controlled by endocytosis and recycling under different cellular conditions. Energy stress is a state in which a cell must engage adaptive responses to ensure survival, including remodelling of the cell-surface proteome. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an important metabolic regulator in the cell. Recent studies suggest AMPK activation may alter the endocytosis of a few specific proteins. How increased AMPK activity globally regulates the cell surface proteome is not known. I have developed a method to isolate the cell surface proteome from cultured cells. Coupling this method to quantitative mass spectrometry has allowed systematic identification of changes in the cell-surface proteome upon metabolic regulation. I found that activation of AMPK results in robust changes in the cell surface proteome, including cell adhesion and migration proteins. I confirmed that AMPK activation elicits a decrease in the cell surface abundance of the adhesion and migration protein β1-integrin, and that this is correlated with altered function of the endocytosis protein Dab2. Thus, my research furthers our understanding of how AMPK regulates the cell surface proteome and the specific mechanism by which AMPK regulates cellular adhesion and migration.

Abstract Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable malignancy of mature plasma cells. Despite major advances in the therapeutic armamentarium of MM, only 50% of patients survive more than 5 years after diagnosis, with significantly lower rates (21%) for high-risk patients. Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy targeting BCMA (B-cell maturation antigen) shows high response rates in relapsed/refractory patients. However, most patients have disease remission that lasts less than 18 months, prompting the search for additional and synergistic therapeutic approaches. We unbiasedly mapped the cell surface proteome of MM by integrating Mass-Spectrometry (MS) and RNA-seq analyses from 7 MM cell lines and 904 primary MM patient samples bearing high-risk cytogenetics. To identify cell surface proteins, we ran a pool of 4,761 proteins and 16,000+ transcripts through five repositories. An integrated scoring database was developed by scoring each ID based on the number of databases (0-5) it was identified in, with 0 if the molecule was not found in any and 5 if the protein was found in all five. We identified 402 proteins with a surface score of 3 or higher in MM cell lines and patient samples by transcriptomics and proteomics. We prioritized the 326 candidates that were more highly expressed in patients. Based on functional enrichment analyses, we found the proteins formed three main networks with immune mechanisms representing the largest cluster (227 out of 326 cell surface proteins) followed by transporters and adhesion proteins.Based on a pipeline we previously established (1), we further selected 97 candidates minimally expressed in normal tissues. This list included current therapeutic targets such as BCMA, SLAMF7, ITGB7 and LY9. Validation in primary patient samples by western blot and flow-cytometric analyses, enabled the identification of 10 top candidates (CCR1, CD320, FCRL3, IL12RB1, ITGA4, LAX1, LILRB4, LRRC8D, SEMA4A, SLAMF6) that resulted most frequently and highly expressed. We found that LAX1, LILRB4 and SEMA4A significantly impact myeloma patient overall survival based on Kaplan-Meier analysis in the MM Research Foundation (MMRF) cohort (2). CCR1, IL12RB1, LILRB4 and SEMA4A were upregulated by the treatment with Bortezomib or Venetoclax that conversely, decreased BCMA expression in MM U266 cells. By stratifying the patient population, we found that the SEMA4A and LAX1 were up-regulated in patients with t(4;14) compared to patients with no cytogenetic abnormality; LILRB4 in patients with t(14;16) and CCR1 patients with t(14;16) and t(14;20). By calculating co-expression levels CCR1-LILRB4 and CCR1-FCRL3 resulted co-expressed in 100% of patients. For safety purposes (3), we excluded candidates with high (>55%) protein abundance in highly-purified normal hematopoietic stem cells and activated T-cells, narrowing down the list to 6 top candidates (CCR1, FCRL3, IL12RB1, LILRB4, LRRC8D, SEMA4A). To define the function of this group of promising cell surface targets, we used a CRISPR/Cas9 inducible system in KMS11 MM cells. We found that knock-out of CCR1, LRRC8D and SEMA4A individually reduces the MM cell growth by ~60%, 50% and 50% respectively, and almost completely abrogates MM cell migration through porous chambers by >80%. By co-culturing irradiated KO and control MM cells with healthy donor T-cells we also found that lack of CCR1 increased T-cell proliferation by 50% compared to controls and enhanced killing of MM cells, suggesting that CCR1 may suppress T-cell mediated immune responses in addition to play a role in MM cell survival and migration. This study suggests the contribution of an altered MM surfaceome to disease development and may lead to potential novel immunotherapeutic approaches for high-risk MM. References 1.

Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) play a critical role in oxygen transport, and are the focus of important diseases including malaria and the haemoglobinopathies. Proteins at the RBC surface can determine susceptibility to disease, however previous studies classifying the RBC proteome have not used specific strategies directed at enriching cell surface proteins. Furthermore, there has been no systematic analysis of variation in abundance of RBC surface proteins between genetically disparate human populations. These questions are important to inform not only basic RBC biology but additionally to identify novel candidate receptors for malarial parasites. Here, we use ‘plasma membrane profiling’ and tandem mass tag-based mass spectrometry to enrich and quantify primary RBC cell surface proteins from two sets of nine donors from the UK or Senegal. We define a RBC surface proteome and identify potential Plasmodium receptors based on either diminished protein abundance, or increased variation in RBCs from West African individuals.

AbstractMyelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are diseases of abnormal hematopoietic differentiation with aberrant epigenetic alterations. Azacitidine (AZA) is a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor (DNMTi) widely used to treat MDS and AML, yet the impact of AZA on the cell surface proteome has not been defined. To identify potential therapeutic targets for use in combination with AZA in AML patients, we investigated the effects of AZA treatment on four AML cell lines (KG1a, HL60, HNT34, and AML193), representing different stages of differentiation. The effect of AZA treatment on these cell lines was characterized at three levels: the DNA methylome (methylation array), the transcriptome (gene expression array), and the cell surface proteome (glycoprotein capture with SILAC labeling). Untreated AML cell lines showed substantial overlap in their methylomes, transcriptomes, and cell surface proteomes. AZA treatment globally reduced DNA methylation in all cell lines, but changes in the transcriptome and surface proteome were subtle and differed among the cell lines. Transcriptome analysis identified five commonly up-regulated coding genes upon AZA treatment in all four cell lines, TRPM4 being the only gene encoding a surface protein, and surface proteomics analysis found no commonly regulated proteins. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) of differentially-regulated RNA and surface proteins showed a decrease in metabolism pathways and an increase in immune defense response pathways. As such, AZA treatment in four AML cell lines had diverse effects at the individual gene and protein level, but converged to regulation of metabolism and immune response at the pathway level. Given the heterogeneous response of AZA in the four cell lines at the gene and protein level, we discuss potential therapeutic strategies for combinations with AZA.

MYC is a powerful transcription factor overexpressed in many human cancers including B cell and prostate cancers. Antibody therapeutics are exciting opportunities to attack cancers but require knowledge of surface proteins that change due to oncogene expression. To identify how MYC overexpression remodels the cell surface proteome in a cell autologous fashion and in different cell types, we investigated the impact of MYC overexpression on 800 surface proteins in three isogenic model cell lines either of B cell or prostate cell origin engineered to have high or low MYC levels. We found that MYC overexpression resulted in dramatic remodeling (both up- and down-regulation) of the cell surfaceome in a cell type-dependent fashion. We found systematic and large increases in distinct sets of >80 transporters including nucleoside transporters and nutrient transporters making cells more sensitive to toxic nucleoside analogs like cytarabine, commonly used for treating hematological cancers. Paradoxically, MYC overexpression also increased expression of surface proteins driving cell turnover such as TNFRSF10B, also known as death receptor 5, and immune cell attacking signals such as the natural killer cell activating ligand NCR3LG1, also known as B7-H6. We generated recombinant antibodies to these two targets and verified their up-regulation in MYC overexpression cell lines and showed they were sensitive to bispecific T cell engagers (BiTEs). Our studies demonstrate how MYC overexpression leads to dramatic bidirectional remodeling of the surfaceome in a cell type-dependent but functionally convergent fashion and identify surface targets or combinations thereof as possible candidates for cytotoxic metabolite or immunotherapy.

The cell surface proteome of tumors mediates the interface between the transformed cells and the general microenvironment, including interactions with stromal cells in the tumor niche and immune cells such as T cells. In addition, the cell surface proteome of individual cancers defines biomarkers for that tumor type and potential proteins that can be the target of antibody-mediated therapy. We have used next-generation deep RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) coupled to an in-house database of genes encoding cell surface proteins (herein referred to as the surfaceome) as a tool to define a cell surface proteome of Ewing sarcoma compared with progenitor mesenchymal stem cells. This subtractive RNA-seq analysis revealed a specific surfaceome of Ewing and showed unexpectedly that the leucine-rich repeat and Ig domain protein 1 (LINGO1) is expressed in over 90% of Ewing sarcoma tumors, but not expressed in any other somatic tissue apart from the brain. We found that the LINGO1 protein acts as a gateway protein internalizing into the tumor cells when engaged by antibody and can carry antibody conjugated with drugs to kill Ewing sarcoma cells. Therefore, LINGO1 is a new, unique, and specific biomarker and drug target for the treatment of Ewing sarcoma.
